"...La prima soluzione che propongo è WordPress, che esiste in due versioni: una da scaricare e installare su una propria macchina e una al quale ci si può iscrivere. (...) Poi si può fare il blog in Blogger, uno dei servizi offerti da Google. È un servizio analogo a WordPress.com ma si può adattare molto più liberamente. Dicono che sia un po' più facile da usare, all'inizio; a me paiono valutazioni molto personali. In questo caso c'è da considerare il tema della "googlocrazia". Ognuno lo affronti come crede. Certo, il dominio di Google è tentacolare, può decidere all'improvviso di mollare un servizio, come sta facendo con Google Reader - guardo caso, i web feed non piacciono tanto ai latifondisti… "

Quando sono sulla home page del mio blog, non appare nessun link che mi porti alla pagina segnalata. Qualcuno mi può aiutare?

Ho provato a seguire le indicazioni in http://buzz.blogger.com/2009/09/you-might-as-well-jump.html nel post http://rincorrerefarfalle.blogspot.ch/2013/06/tagliare-un-post-con-link-read-more-per.html : ha tagliato sì, ma non mi ha aggiunto il link "more*. Si potrebbe salvare il post tagliato, copiarne l'URL, modiricarlo aggiungendo un link all'URL prima del taglio. Però ci deve essere un trucco più semplice.

Perfetto! Grazie mille!

By Matthew Hughes MakeUseOf.com April 5, 2013 "... Dire Consequences For An Administrative Error The one thing that stuck out for me when speaking to Amber was how catastrophic being removed from Facebook could be. Her suspension almost derailed a social media campaign for a large, multinational company. It resulted in her losing some of her oldest friends. It resulted in a loss of trust in an institution which almost all of us use to handle our social interactions. If an administrative error on a website can result in someone losing old friends and potentially losing their professional reputation, we should be questioning the role that Facebook has in our lives, and if we're too dependent on it. We reached out to Facebook and asked them to comment on this story. When asked how they identify breaches of their terms of service, they said "People report content or accounts to Facebook via the reporting links you can find on every page of Facebook. After you submit a report, Facebook will investigate the issue and determine whether or not the content should be removed based on Facebook's policies". They also said that their policies for dealing with people who breach their TOS depend on the particular rule broken. "If a content violates our policies then we will remove it. For example if a photo breaks our nudity guidelines we would remove it and let the person who posted it know. If someone is using Facebook under a false identity then we remove the profile." (...)

"Author: Andy Carvin , EDC Center for Media & Community | December 7th, 2004 You may have noticed recently that lots of websites now contain little graphical buttons with the word XML on them. For example: XML button When you click on the button, all you see is a bunch of jumbled text and computer code. What's this all about? It's an RSS feed, and they're changing the way people access the Internet. RSS, or Really Simple Syndication, is a technical format that allows online publishers to share and distribute their content to other websites or individual Internet users. It's commonly used for distributing headlines on news websites. Bloggers use it to distribute summaries of their blog entries as well. RSS is written in the Internet coding language known as XML, which is why you see RSS buttons labeled that way. If a website publishes an RSS page, commonly known as an RSS "feed," this feed will contain summaries of all the recent articles posted on that site. For example, Yahoo News publishes news related to world headlines, national news, sports, etc. These you can all read by going to the Yahoo website. But they also publish RSS feeds for each of these subjects. Each RSS feed contains a summary of the most recent news stories posted. Similarly, the Digital Divide Network publishes RSS feeds for our news headlines, events listings and other content on our website. I even have my own RSS feed for articles that I publish on my personal blog, Andy Carvin's Waste of Bandwidth. But why do RSS feeds look like a jumbled mess when I click on them with most Web browsers? It's because RSS feeds are meant to be read by machines rather than people. Software and websites can understand the data contained in RSS feeds and make it available to people on personalized websites, through software known as news aggregators, even through email. So when you aggregate RSS feeds, you're having a computer collect content from many different websites and organize them in a convenient pla

"matzlanz Posted April 30, 2013 at 2:03 am | Permalink Per la mia breve esperienza con Bloggercredo che, almeno nei post, accetti più tag rispetto a wordpress. Forse è una scelta di tutta l'infrastruttura blog di google. Per esempio in blogger funzionano gli iframe e il tag embed anche nei widget. Utili per inserire video da youtube e molto altro."

"A blogger claiming to be "A Gay Girl in Damascus" attracted a lot of online attention. But when she was reported kidnapped, some journalists became suspicious. From Carvin's Storify of the incident: Around this time I received a Twitter direct message from @DannySeesIt, a Syrian I've known since the Egyptian revolution. He's given me permission to publish the text of his DM: "I'm asking about that today most of the day and I have some solid connection in the lesbian scene in Damascus. No one knows her." Danny's comment struck me as odd, especially based on all the people I knew who were vouching for her online. I replied to him: I have from a good source that she is indeed real. We'll see, though.

Andy Carvin ✔ @acarvin If we could only calculate the sheer number of hours we spent this week on #Amina, each one of which was an hour spent not on Syria itself. 9:28 PM - 12 Jun 2011"

"TWITTER -- February 17, 2011 at 9:30 AM EDT NPR's Andy Carvin on Tracking and Tweeting Revolutions By: Hari Sreenivasan We caught up with NPR's Senior Strategist Andy Carvin between his 400+ tweets a day for a chat about his Twitter stream. It has become a must-follow wire service of sorts for people interested in the latest developments in Tunisia, Egypt and a growing number of countries across the Middle East, Persian Gulf and North Africa. We discussed how he began mapping out whom to trust in the "Twittersphere," and how he works to verify and share facts with NPR as the stories develop. His tweets are populated with the words "source" and "verified?" More often than not, as he re-tweets trends and waves of information across the streams he tracks as his sources verify or discount facts on the ground. Carvin uses a combination of old media (wire services, broadcast networks) and follows a series of bloggers and Twitter accounts. He verifies with sources he trusts before saying a piece of information is "confirmed." Andy has spoken about his open news-gathering processes during a live-chat with Poynter, a Q&A with the Atlantic, the Knight Digital Media Center and it has been blogged about at the New York Times."

Dubbi etici sul fatto di aver chiesto ai miei studenti di aprire un account gmail (ok, molti ce l'avevano già, ma non tutti)

Political gatherings have been banned in two Pakistani provinces and many activists arrested to prevent them joining a planned protest march. Opposition supporters and lawyers had organised what they are calling a "long march" against the government due to start later this week. Activists, lawyers and ordinary citizens have reacted to the latest developments with a mixture of defiance and fear.
